These waters are known for Speckled Trout, Redfish, Jack Crevalle, Flounder, Mangrove Snapper, Sheepshead, Black Drum, and more – with any luck, it won't take long to hook into some. On the day of your trip you're likely to bottom fish using light tackle.

Your boat for the day is a 22' Express H22 Center console that can carry up to 4 passengers. It has all the essentials no fishing machine can run without. Rods, reels, and tackle are covered by the charter. Live bait is available.

There's no need to buy a fishing license, just show up ready for a good time! Keep in mind that you may release some fish due to regulations. Your captain will help you follow regulations while you fish.

A few items to bring include sunglasses, a hat, and bottled water. If you'd like to bring other drinks, just ask. Alcohol is allowed in moderation, just avoid hard liquor as well as glass bottles.

And that's it! Your fishing trip with Southern Guide Services is just a click away.

we had an amazing time we caught a lot. It may not have been of size, but it was still fun.

We had an incredible experience. His patience is exceptional, and I would gladly do it again. If you have children, he's perfect for them. It was a truly memorable time, and I cherish that moment.

My son and I took a trip with Capt Jacob today. Started slow with some rain, but Jacob kept going. We ended up with a couple trouts and reds and had a great time. Would definitely recommend Southern Guide Services.
